Is the driver or event organizer liable for Halloween night accidents in California?

It can be either — or both. Liability for a Halloween night accident depends on who failed in their duty of care.

  • Drivers must be extra cautious on Halloween due to increased foot traffic. Speeding or distracted driving could make them liable.
  • Event organizers (like HOAs, nonprofits, or private homeowners) might be liable if:
    • The event lacked proper lighting or crowd control
    • Pathways were unsafe
    • There was alcohol served without oversight (in adult events)

A thorough investigation is key. At Tim Wright Law, we look at all contributing factors — and push for full compensation.
